The Mole Hole
Outside of the Canadian Border is what looks like a war. Unarmed people, throwing themselves at a huge wall of light. Over 5,000 miles of barrier, including the border of Alaska. Forming an near-impenetrable barrier over the nation. While other barriers around cities all over the world exist, Canada is the only nation surrounded by its own bubble.
The Beta infected, covered with tumors and dirty shredded clothes hurl themselves against the wall, day after day & hour after hour. One can sometimes see a figure hover over them. A gaunt, pale creature. Once powerfully built, now looking sick as his red glowing eyes and mouth howl with hunger at the tasty things just out of reach. His shredded cape, blowing in the wind as he points at the barrier, as if that would somehow remove it.
Alpha Man wants in, and he wants the life so close he can taste it.
However, despite the turmoil on the surface, there was something else going on deep underground. Well out of Alpha Man's super hearing and X-ray vision, shielded and concealed, lay a large hole. A hole carved for a purpose, with many side tunnels, air vents, electric lights via hidden generators and solar panels on the surface.
At the center of this place was a bar. A large gathering space for the Freebooters, the source of Canada's food and other material needs kicked back. The bar is named after the giant weremole who dug these tunnels.
The Mole Hole.
Lit by Halloween LEDS and other such things, the Bar has tables and stools sculpted of earth. There is a counter where a robot bartender serves a surprising variety of drinks. Although there are times where supplies of liquor run low. In the center of the main chamber, where the drinks where served, is a large fake Mole about 6 feet tall. Wearing some sort of space suit. It has a sign hung around its neck, which says 'Praise be to the Holey Moley!'
All manner of people are at this Freebooter headquarters/relaxation spot. Ex-Henchmen of supervillains, minor heroes who had family in Canada, former government agents, Aliens trapped on earth. Pretty much if you can imagine it, it will show up and order a drink here at some point.
Above the bar itself is a giant TV screen. It is not plugged in, and there is no internet to use. The Bar does have a movie night, but has a separate projected screen for that. This huge TV is for communications of one person. Thinkmaster. She is able to empower and project herself onto the screen in a holographic display. There she sends out of her orders for the next job of insuring the survival of the human race.
She is not well liked by ether the villain or the hero community. However, her effectiveness in organization and resource management cannot be dismissed. Unlike many villains, her ego is not a priority for her. You might say, she does not need credit when she knows she runs the show.
Now, each of you have arrived in the Mole Hole. Some for the first time, guided here by another Freebooter. Some of you are long term Thinkmaster agents, some have just made it by the skin of their teeth. Now you are doing what everyone here is doing...waiting for the next Thinkmaster announcement.
OOC-You have all just arrived in the Mole Hole. Any member of the Freebooters have been here before. Anyone not directly linked with Thinkmaster or her agents are arriving for the first time. Obviously Holey Moley knows this place very well, as he was contracted by Thinkmaster to build it.
Please introduce your character as they arrive, provide a current description other than the one you already have, and what you are doing to pass the time while you wait. None of you know each other at this moment.
Side note-nobody knows how they got here. Not even Holey Moley. This is for a reason, but you can't remember what that reason is...for now.
